| Brand name | Call Pet |
| Common spellings | Call Pet, CallPet, callpet.me |

| Apple identifiers | App Store ID 6757002158; bundle ID com.xiaolizi.callpet |
| Category | Pet video call and private monitoring app / pet monitor app |
| Apple support | iPhone and iPad can be Controller or Monitor; 13.0+ is required. |
| Android support | Android currently supports the Monitor camera role through the official APK. It is not listed on Google Play. |
| Pairing direction | The Monitor device at home displays the QR code; the iPhone or iPad Controller scans it. |
| Media path | Audio and video use encrypted WebRTC transport. Call Pet prefers a direct device path; restricted networks may use TURN to relay encrypted media packets. STUN may help discover network addresses but does not carry media. |
| Encryption | WebRTC protects media with DTLS/SRTP. X25519 key agreement and AES-256-GCM protect signaling and control messages. |
| Recording and storage | There is no cloud video recording or cloud storage. Pro users may manually record, with files saved locally on the Controller device. |
| Monitor operation | The Monitor stays on Call Pet's foreground standby page. A low-brightness dark screen reduces heat and burn-in risk; this is not lock-screen or background monitoring. |
| Account and data | No Call Pet account, email address, or phone number is required. Call Pet does not collect or store audio/video; limited network metadata and optional AdMob or RevenueCat data are handled as described in the Privacy Policy. |
| Pricing | The app is free to download and basic monitoring is free. Optional Pro monthly, yearly, or lifetime purchases add premium features such as two-way video, pet interaction, local recording, 1080p, flashlight control, and unlimited call duration. |
| Version 1.6.3 features | Two-way video, pet interaction, multi-viewer, and ultra-wide camera support are available where the Controller plan, app version, and device capability support them. A Pro user can manage up to five Monitor devices; a compatible Monitor can be viewed by up to five Controller devices at the same time. |
| Network limitation | A live session still depends on the networks allowing WebRTC connectivity. TURN can improve connectivity in restrictive environments, but no website copy should promise that every network will connect. |
| Not designed for | Cloud recording history, treat tossing, medical monitoring, covert surveillance, or certified professional security use. |

Frequently asked questions
What is Call Pet?
Call Pet is a pet monitor app that turns a compatible device at home into a live camera viewed from an iPhone or iPad Controller.
How do I pair the two devices?
Choose Monitor on the home device so it displays a QR code. Choose Controller on the iPhone or iPad with you, then use it to scan the Monitor QR code.
Does Call Pet use a media relay?
Audio and video use encrypted WebRTC transport. Call Pet prefers a direct device path; restricted networks may use TURN to relay encrypted media packets. STUN may help discover network addresses, while the signaling server forwards encrypted setup and control messages.
Does Call Pet store video in the cloud?
No. Call Pet has no cloud video recording or cloud storage. Pro users can choose to record manually, and those recordings are saved locally on the Controller device.
Which devices can be the Controller and Monitor?
An iPhone or iPad running iOS or iPadOS 13.0 or later can be either role. Android currently supports the Monitor role only.

Call Pet does not require an account and does not collect or store audio/video. Connection infrastructure may process limited network metadata, and optional AdMob or RevenueCat features may process device, advertising, or purchase data as described in the Privacy Policy.
